Mine are faculty that I'm close to, so I don't really feel a rush to get them something right after the letter. That being said, I plan on getting them school stuff when my cycle is over. Hopefully the Judge will be playing softball in a nice UVA baseball cap.

I'm not 21, so I can't give alcohol. So for one prof that I really like, I made little chocolate cherry bundt cakes and individually wrapped them. Then, I put them in a basket(so that each got six). I also included a thank you note. It's pretty cute in my opinion.For another one, who showed me his letter and I wasn't too pleased(he said very nice things, it was just all over the place), I am getting a 10 dollar starbucks card and a thank you note.

Both sound like excellent ideas! Especially the chocolate cherry bundt cakes! Nice personal touch!! I gave each of mine Amazon gift cards.

My writers are in another country so I sent them a nice letter, some of the "famous San Francisco chocolate" (I live in SF) and a little funny toy that my company gives to its customers. Just tried to make it somewhat personal.

I wrote both of mine nice thank you note's and got them both gift cards. One to a movie theater because she is an avid movie fan and was always talking about films in class, and my other rec'r one to Barnes and Noble.
